[Nfb-krafters-korner] Hand building with clay

[joseli Walter]

For air dry clay, crayola makes some really good stuff. This isn't the model
magic that everyone is familiar with, but is sold in the same section and
comes in a four or eight pound container. It dries hard as a rock and really
doesn't make a bad finished product.

Hi Barb,
Hey, just begin by getting some clay and see what happens. If you have a
local arts center that offers clay classes, better yet. If not, your kitchen
table works just fine. I have made many pieces on my kitchen counter, table,
and on a table outside on the porch. That is the beauty of working in clay -
you can just haul it out anywhere and begin to work. Let's stay in touch,
those who are working in clay, and those who want to do it - so we can
uplift and encourage each other in this medium.  I love to hear what others
are doing and how they do it, too.  Lynda River Woman
